Question 1

Meiosis

Answer 1

one diploid cell divides and for haploid reproductive cells ( gametes) (DDH)

Question 2

Homologous chromosomes

Answer 2

pair of chromosomes that have genes for the same traits arranged in the same order

Question 3

Diploid

Answer 3

cells that have pairs of chromosomes , one from each parent . The body, or somatic, cells of an organism (all cells other than gametes) are diploid.

Question 4

Haploid

Answer 4

-cells that have only one chromosome from each pair. Haploid cells contain half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells.
The gametes of an organism are haploid.

Question 5

Crossing Over

Answer 5

a process in which homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material. Crossing over occur during the prophase I stage of meiosis.

Question 6

Independent Assortment

Answer 6

the way homologous chromosomes line up on either side of the equator during Metaphase I. This helps to give more genetic variation.
